	The phase 1 of the SPIRAL2 facility, the extension project of the GANIL laboratory, is under construction in Caen, France. The accelerator is based on a linear solution, mainly composed of a normal conducting RFQ and a superconducting linac. One of its specificities is to be designed to accelerate high power deuteron and heavy ion beams from 40 to 200kW, and medium intensity heavy ion beams as well to a few kW. A Machine Protection System, has been studied to control and protect the accelerator from thermal damages for a very large range of beam intensities and powers. This paper presents the technical solutions chosen for this system which is based on two technical subsystems: one dedicated to thermal protection which requires a first PLC associated with a fast electronic system and a second dedicated to enlarged protection which is based on a safety products.

TUPPC102	User Interfaces for the Spiral2 Machine Protection System	controls, PLC, rfq, software	818

	Spiral2 accelerator is designed to accelerate protons, deuterons, ions with a power from hundreds of Watts to 200kW. Therefore, it is important to monitor and anticipate beam losses to maintain equipment integrities by triggering beam cuts when beam losses or equipment malfunctions are detected; the MPS (Machine Protection System) is in charge of this function. The MPS has also to monitor and limit activations but this part is not addressed here. Linked to the MPS, five human machine interfaces will be provided. The first, “MPS” lets operators and accelerator engineers monitor MPS states, alarms and tune some beam losses thresholds. The second “beam power rise” defines successive steps to reach the desired beam power. Then, “interlock” is a synoptic to control beam stops state and defaults; the “beam losses” one displays beam losses, currents and efficiencies along the accelerator. Finally, “beam structure” lets users interact with the timing system by controlling the temporal structure to obtain a specific duty cycle according to the beam power constraints. In this paper, we introduce these human machine interfaces, their interactions and the method used for software development.
